No additional drivers are required.
Is the drive being recognized?
Post the output of the command lsusb.

Thank Michael for your response, but, what do you mean by "Post the output of the command lsusb"?

And how I can do it?

Thanks

lsusb is a console command. Open a terminal window and type the command.

You go to the website Eddy1 gave you. You click on the button marked "User Manual" at the bottom of the page, then READ IT. It has the installation instructions in it.
